A clutch of citizens came together on Thursday to commemorate the second anniversary of the Shaheen Bagh protests that roiled the national capital after Citizenship Amendment Act was passed in 2019.
“The protests at Shaheen Bagh and Jamia Millia Islamia were the inspiration for the farmers’ agitation. Now, we are taking inspiration from the farmers’ movement and we will launch agitations till the CAA is repealed,” said Khaleeda Parveen, while addressing a large gathering at Lamakaan on Thursday afternoon.
The venue was covered with photographs from Shaheen Bagh as well as from protest marches across the country. Some of the participants brought in their own tricolours to the meeting and sat with them while listening to speakers.
